About This Home
As of August 2021Through a gate at the end of a winding, circular driveway, Bray Cottage at Sasqua Hill comes into view nestled in a lush park-like enclave. A covered bluestone porch frames the entrance of the classic Nantucket shingle-style home, inviting you to pause and breathe in the enchanting, private setting. Once part of the Bray Estate that extended to the shoreline, Bray Cottage has been beautifully updated to maintain its original charm, while infusing modern amenities & sophisticated design. A gracious living room with a gas FP and dining room lined with bookcases form elegant gathering spaces. A gourmet chef’s kitchen opens to the family room w/ slate and limestone floors that embraces the essence of indoor/outdoor living with French doors to the deck and pergola draped in climbing hydrangea. A freeform granite terrace anchors the home to the landscape, offering a beautiful space for entertaining under the stars. The great lawn stretches out before you, a pristine setting for celebrations, lawn games or space for a pool. Every room is designed to capture distinctive outdoor vignettes. The home office overlooks the zen garden and the master bedroom enjoys three exposures for sweeping sylvan views and glorious natural light. An expertly-curated collection of specimen trees, including Japanese maples and a wooded glade of hostas and ferns form a private arboretum. Across from Shorehaven Golf Club & minutes from Saugatuck restaurants and train, this is a serene retreat like no other.
